Joe Mannix : [wakes up in the middle of the night after drinking his spiked scotch with Elena sitting by his bed] You mind telling me what this is all about?
Elena : You want to get away from here, don't you?
Joe Mannix : Do you know a way?
Elena : Yes.
Joe Mannix : Well, what about you? Suppose they guess you're the one that turned me loose?
Elena : Harry will take care of me.
Joe Mannix : Harry who?
Elena : Harry Tass.
Joe Mannix : Harry Tass? Here?
Elena : You know him.
Joe Mannix : Yeah, I know him.
Elena : He wants you dead.
Joe Mannix : Yeah...
Elena : You'll have a good head start. They don't expect you to wake up until morning.
[starts unting Joe from the ropes he's bound to]
Joe Mannix : Hey, by the way, uh... thanks for that message. Otherwise, I might have finished that drink.
Elena : Shh!
[footsteps are heard retreating]
Joe Mannix : Are they all in the same business as Harry?
Elena : Yeah, it's a pool. You know, like a secretarial pool?
Joe Mannix : Only this is one for hit men. A place to cool off between jobs... draw weapons, get assignments. Is that why Harry's here, to get an assignment?
[Elena doesn't answer]
Joe Mannix : When? Where?
Elena : You better worry about yourself.
[frees Joe from the ropes that are tied around his wrist]
Joe Mannix : Who's Harry's target?
Elena : Drop it.
Joe Mannix : I know Harry Tass enough to know that he's only used for top jobs.
Elena : I said drop it.
Joe Mannix : Did he say anything? Give any hints?
Elena : Harry is my man. You're just passing traffic.
[frees Joe from the ropes tied around his feet]
Joe Mannix : Well... the man he's gonna kill must be somebody pretty important. Doesn't that mean anything to you?
Elena : No, not if it'll hurt Harry.
Joe Mannix : He's your man.
Elena : That's right. We can go now.
